Soletanche Freyssinet S.A.S. manages 3 pending office actions in the Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems technology area. These matters are assigned to 3 distinct examiners, ensuring that each application receives a unique perspective during the review process. The portfolio's activity is concentrated within 2 distinct art units, which suggests a focused technical scope despite the involvement of multiple examiners.
BREGEL, EVAN ANTHONY is the busiest examiner for the portfolio, with 1 pending action. Because the busiest examiner pending count of 1 is only a portion of the 3 total pending office actions, the workload is distributed among the 3 distinct examiners. This distribution prevents a single examiner from having a disproportionate impact on the company's overall prosecution progress. With 3 distinct examiners and 2 distinct art units involved, the company must maintain a versatile legal strategy to address the specific requirements of each official. This structure provides a level of diversification that can mitigate the risk of encountering a single difficult examiner across all pending matters.
Difficulty is derived from the rejection statutes on the most recent pending office action. §101-driven and multi-statute cases are graded Hard; §112-only and obviousness-type double-patenting cases are graded Easy; everything else is Medium. "Unknown" means we have not yet parsed a statute for that office action.
| Bucket | Cases |
|---|---|
| §103 only | 2 (67%) |
